Critteroos: Mix. Match. Print. is an imaginative, new learning app for kids! With three ways to play, children can learn the names of a wide variety of animals in several languages, pair one animal half with its matching half to create a complete image, and mix two different animals together to create their very own “Critteroo“ that can be named, saved, and shared!
